Well, I have to admit that since my team (the 49ers) was eliminated from this year's Super Bowl, I haven't paid too much attention to the event until recently. After all I have to think of a way to watch it on my smart phone! So, I Googled it!
Oh happy day! I found that I could watch it a number of ways using anything but a television, too. Kate Samuelson from FortuneSports.com (1/24/17) posted a great article, "Here’s How to Watch the Super Bowl Without a TV" and it goes into detail the different ways to watch Super Bowl LI without a TV such as watch it streaming live on the FOX Sports Go website or to download the Android or iOS Apps such as on Amazon tablets, Apple TV, Roku, Android TV, Chromecast, Amazon Fire, and Xbox One.
Another way is to to download the NFL mobile App for you Verizon customers, or the NFL Game Pass which is online-only option is available from midnight on game day. Or you can always listen to it on the radio in your man cave, too!
And now a word from our sponsors... a sneak peak of the most important part of the game... yep! -the ads! Enjoy! We'll be seeing ya on game day, on my smart phone! ;-)
OMG! I cannot believe it! PEOTUS (President Elect of the United States) Trump FINALLY had a press conference... and it was a 'looong' one! 77 minutes to be exact.
There was the usual media slap-down that Trump does, and a tongue lashing or two of a couple of reporters, who work for certain online 'fake' news affiliates.
All that and a YUGE denial of leaking confidential information to the media, that worked the over crowded room at Trump Tower into a frenzy! Let's just say in not so many words that some people were not happy.
One reporter just continued in a confrontation with the President Elect and honestly the whole front of the stage was reminiscent of a rock concert mosh pit! I was just waiting for Trump to dive into the audience and ride the wave!
Thank god VPEOTUS (Vice President Elect of the United States) Mike Pence was sent out first to warm up the crowd. Am I the only one who thinks Pence should have been POTUS instead of Trump??? "LOL!"
But, what I was especially mesmerized by was the female attorney Sheri Dillon from the law firm of Morgan-Lewis in Washington, D.C. She gave such a full and detailed explanation of all Trump's possible conflicts of interests, that she literally stole the show! I was totally unprepared to be that impressed to be honest with you, -but I was!
Ms. Dillon began by educating us all on former vice president Nelson Rockefeller (1908-1979) and how his fortune was handled while he was in office. This set a great example and education for us all who are not fully aware of how the elite handle their wealth and businesses.
It was quite an undertaking just to listen to the laundry list of issues that both of Trump's sons, Donald Jr. and brother Eric will have to assume into their everyday business dealings, for as Trump Sr. indicated, -the next 8 years! He's ever the optimist, that's for sure!
The brothers also won't have the assistance of their sister Ivanka (BTW-everyone's favorite Trump!) who will not be involved in any role of her father's company, as well as her own apparel company and accessory line.
I guess the YUGE take-away of this press conference was that we all learned that BuzzFeed was really FAKE news!
Enjoy the video below and this transcript, as Ms. Dillon certainly earned her YUGE pay at this press conference, and deserves much needed recognition for at least educating us all on how rich folks handle their ass-ets! Anyway, it was quite entertaining to say the least!

I rarely write about music because, let's face it, music makes us feel all emotional and that can be a broad range category, right? But, my friend Manny recently posted a video for us all to watch that just moved me so much, that I felt compelled to share it, and oh, yeah! It's REAL.
According to Andy Greene in a Rolling Stone article in April 2016, Olivia Harrison wanted to limit the performers of "While My Guitar Gently Weeps" to only artists that only George knew. But, Prince insisted he wanted to learn how to play this song that he had not heard before for the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 2004 Induction, all in an attempt to play with Tom Petty, because one of Prince's favorite songs was "Free Fallin", by Petty. (Did anyone happen to notice Petty's purple shirt? An homage to the Purple One, perhaps? LOL!)
In this video, which was an excellently performed jam session to honor the late George Harrison, shows the Purple One in one of his finest musical moments, which only makes us miss him that much more. Anyone that wants to question Prince's talent, has never seen this performance. It's epic!
We lost many artists in 2016, but very few multi-faceted showmen. Hope you enjoy this video. ...RIP... Prince!
